Temple Grandin, Century College Speaker Series (10/20 - Lincoln Mall 7:00 p.m.)

In 2010 Time Magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people. She will talk about "My Experiences with Autism - and Working Hard to Have a Successful Career. More information about this interesting speaker is at my blog. 

Just an FYI for anyone interested in Dr. Temple Grandin, if you are planning to see her on 10/20 in the Lincoln Mall, there is also a movie that has been made about her.  Our library has a copy. There will be two public screenings before her speach.
